Well someone had fun playing arts and craft. Miss NeNe Leakes took to Instagram to showcase her Hermes creation. For those who don't know Hermes Birkins go for $5,000 and up.I mean I guess NeNe is rich and she can afford to do this but to me it just comes off as tacky something a five year old could have done, I'm not sure a five year old would've written that whole closing your legs comment but you get what I'm trying to say. Why not just leave the bag the way it was?

This is not the first time someone wanted to 'UPGRADE' a Birkin, Kanye as a present to Kim had a Birkin painted on by famous artist George Condo, who did the art work for his 2010 album My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. I'm not going to tell anyone what to do with their money or what to do with the things that they buy but I am not a fan of either bags. If I had the money to buy a Birkin, believe me when I say no marker or paint brush is touching its beautiful leather.

I haven't done a makeup routine in so long it is very long overdue. I get a few questions about what I use on my face so I decided to do a post dedicated to it. I can say my makeup routine is always changing. Some of the things in my routine are recent purchases but at the same time have become my holy grail items in my makeup bag.

1. After I wash my face I moisturize my face with POND'S dry skin cream because I have very dry skin

2. Before I do my foundation I like to do my brows. I recently bought the Anastasia Beverly Hills Dip Brow in the shade Chocolate. I apply this with an angled brush. Then when I'm done filling them in I like to clean them up a bit so I use LA Girl Pro Conceal in Pure Beige to highlight under the brow. The Pro Conceal is so hard to find in Canada so your best bet is getting it online.

3. Then when I'm done with my brows I take my Real Techniques buffing brush and apply my NARS Sheer Glow Foundation in the shade Syracuse. I really love this foundation. It gives you medium to full coverage without leaving your face feeling cakey.

4. After concealing I highlight. Taking the same pure beige from LA Girl I put it on my forehead, under my eyes, on the bridge of my nose, on my cupid's bow and my chin.To blend it out I use my fingers.

5. After I do all that highlighting I contour. I know many people love to contour with powder but I choose to contour with foundation. I use MAC's Matchmaster in 8.5 and 9.0.I contour around the perimeter of my face and the hollows of my cheek.

6. Then when I'm done contouring I set my highlight with my Ruby Kisses HD Set N' Forget setting powder in Banana or the new Ben Nye Banana Powder I picked up. If you don't have the moula for the Ben Nye Powder the Ruby Kisses is a good alternative. Ben Nye products are also hard to find in Canada. I picked up mines at a theater store in Downtown Toronto.

7. The last step in my face makeup routine is to set everything with my Sephora Mattifying Foundation in the shade R 35.Below is the one I have. Last time I checked Sephora revamped it with new packaging.

I can officially say that Khloe is my favorite Kardashian. Miss Kardashian and her little sis Kendall Jenner were pictured walking down the streets of Hollywood on Friday. Can I just say that Khloe's boots are AH-MAZING

Jourdan and Cara rocked it out wearing heels, denim jeans and jerseys while Mr. Rocky kept it cool and collective in a cobalt blue suit, varsity jacket and a camo set. ASAP is actually doing it for me in these pictures, I think its amazing how he is this rapper who embraces and embodies fashion. I actually have
